owens is foley 2.0, he'll never get pushed as a legitimate star but he'll have a decent career being fed to main eventers and upper mid carders because he can can make anyone look good
Why does Vince have such a hard-on for this dude? Am I missing something?
This. Also Vince is a old ass that values consistency and reliability. Owens will never be the top guy in his eyes but he's reliable and has a good attitude. Owens made the decision to have knees surgery ahead of time instead of working while hurt and eventually broke down, so he wouldn't fuck up their booking plan ahead of Mania. This is vince way of rewarding that loyalty (putting company first)

Even thkugh his appeal is obvious I seriously doubt he is worth what he is paid. Most of what is left of the audience is paying to watch WWE, not a specific wrestler
